Crucial role of Glutathione as the body’s Master AntioxidantAntioxidants play a very important role in maintaining our good health. Our body’s master antioxidant is Glutathione which protects the living cells from all the free radicals and toxins that enter into our body through the environmental pollutants present in the water we drink, the food we eat and even the air that we breathe in.Glutathione is made up of three protein building blocks, called amino acids (glutamic acid, cysteine and glycine). It is produced by every living cell of our body. It is not only the body’s master antioxidant but is also the body’s immune booster and detoxifier.The cells of our body produce glutathione so that it can protect all the living cells of the body from the harm caused by the free radicals. The presence of sufficient amount of glutathione in the body is very essential, especially in the organs like liver and brain, so that the different diseases do not develop.Being the body’s master antioxidant, glutathione reduces the free radicals present in our body and also prevents the destruction and the deterioration of the living cells caused by them. If there is a glutathione deficiency in the body different problems like stress, tremor, sleeplessness, loss of memory etc. start to develop.Glutathione levels may drop in the body due to various reasons like increasing age or development of certain diseases. MaxGXL helps to increase the glutathione level in the body by helping the body cells to increase the glutathione production on an average of 200%.MaxGXL is the only glutathione nutraceutical that can be quantified and verified. MaxGXL has the components of glutathione that cause the body to produce it. MaxGXL is not glutathione itself, as ingesting glutathione will not yield any results, it will just be flushed from the body.

Free radiclas
Free radicals lead to development and progression of many brain disorders like brain injury, neurodegenerative diseases etc. Glutathione being the brain's master antioxidant plays an important role in protecting the brain from these free radicals and the harm caused by them.
Studies have shown that among all the organs present in our body, our brain is most vulnerable to attack of free radicals as it generates more oxidative by-products than any other organ in the body. Glutathione deficiency in the brain leads to the progression of many neurological and psychiatric diseases caused by these free radicals.
Generation of reactive free radicals and oxidative damage are the main causes responsible for death of brain cells due to brain injury. Presence of good levels of glutathione in the brain prevents the death of cells from brain injury.
Studies have suggested that, the cells in males and females react in different ways to the brain injuries. After a brain injury, the glutathione level was found to remain constant in the case of females but was found to drop by 80% in case of males with the same brain injury.
The death rate of brain cells become faster when there is depletion in the glutathione level. Therefore, it is suggested that the males with a brain injury will be subjected to shorter survival period compared to females with the same brain injury.
Improved glutathione level can help patients with brain injuries to prevent death of brain cells and also help to improve the longevity.
MaxGXl will help the body to manufacture on the average of 200% more glutathione, which helps the brain cells to rebuild themselves much more quickly.
